What do you guys think about this host?

I saw this on DX and I think this could be a cool build:

What do you guys think?

 

[pschlosser]

that's quite the nightstick.

 

[Blord]

That is more a stick than a light. The handle contains only the batteries. Nothing in barrel.

 

[Cube777]

Maybe you can drill holes on the barrel and then install LED's in there that light up when you turn it on?

 

[Flaminpyro]

looks like it should be able to hold 4 or 5 18650's :crackup:

 

[Cube777]

If someone could machine one I think this should be able to get very good heat dissipation or hold more batteries. Imagine how cool light-saber this could make!
:lasergun:

Or assault weapon:
:horse:

Or you could extend the heatsink down the barrel...

 

[jimdt7]

Maybe we should send one to Mrmouse and
make an extended heatsink for it.... :drool:

Looks almost like a Stun wand the future police used in the movie demolition Man

 

[Cube777]

You can also integrate LED's or glow powder onto the heatsink, imagine how space-age this could look

Imagine the battery life of running all these off a single 18650!

^Not high powered LED's, just those cheap LED's that consume very little power

Fair enough...

I bought a similar flashlight thinking it'd be a great laser host:

UltraFire Cree XM-L T6 690lm 5-Mode White Tactical Flashlight - Black (2 x 18650) - Free Shipping - DealExtreme

It turned out to be massive. Great weight and balance for a club... It's going to be my flashlight of choice when I go back to Philly.

18650 x4, 3.7v x4 in parallel? The diode and the driver must be a tough one :beer:
